Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of tire technology, specifically to an improved tread pattern structure for off-road motorcycle tires. Background Technology
[0002] Tires are the only part of a vehicle (such as motorcycles and electric vehicles) that directly contacts the road surface. Their main functions are to bear loads, transmit the power needed for vehicle movement, ensure stable driving, and cope with different road conditions. Tire tread patterns have a significant impact on a vehicle's power / braking performance, water drainage, grip, driving comfort, and driving safety. At high speeds, vehicle tires need to simultaneously provide grip, water drainage, stability, and traction on different road surfaces. However, current tire tread patterns are relatively simple and generally suffer from the following problems: Poor performance: For medium and large displacement motorcycles, such as off-road motorcycles, a single tire tread pattern will affect the tire's grip and braking performance on the road surface, and thus cannot meet the needs of off-road motorcycles. Impact on driving safety: Small stones can easily get stuck in the existing tread grooves. Sharp stones may puncture the outer rubber layer of the tire, causing air leakage and affecting driving safety. Summary of the Invention

[0012] The second technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an improved tread pattern structure for off-road motorcycle tires. By further optimizing the cross-sectional shape of the tread grooves, the groove openings are narrowed due to compression when the tread grooves come into contact with the wheel surface, making it less likely for stones to get stuck in the grooves, thus solving the problem of existing tires affecting driving safety due to stones getting stuck.
[0013] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows: Based on the above scheme, the cross-sectional shape of the tread groove on the tread module T is designed as a wedge-shaped dovetail with a narrow top and a wide bottom, and multiple protrusions are arranged in a linear array along the length direction on both sides of the tread groove, wherein the surface of the protrusion is a circular arc surface.
[0014] By adopting the above solution, the grooves on the tire become narrower due to compression when they come into contact with the wheel surface, so stones are less likely to get stuck in the grooves; the protrusions can effectively block stones, so that the high-speed rotating tire will not reduce its grip and braking performance due to stones getting stuck.
[0015] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. Enhanced Performance: The tread module T includes three grooves (groove 1, groove 2, and groove 3) arranged on opposite sides relative to the tire's equator XX. These crisscrossing grooves significantly improve tire grip. The tread module T also includes three grooves (groove 4, groove 5, and groove 6) arranged on opposite sides relative to the tire's equator XX. These grooves penetrate the gaps between grooves 1, 2, and 3, further enhancing tire grip and stability, better meeting the needs of off-road motorcycles. 2. Driving safety: The cross-sectional shape of the tread grooves on the tread module T is a wedge-shaped dovetail with a narrow top and a wide bottom. When the tread grooves come into contact with the wheel surface, the groove openings are narrowed due to compression, so stones are less likely to get stuck in the grooves. Protrusions are set on both sides of the tread grooves. The protrusions can effectively block stones, so that the high-speed rotating tire will not reduce its grip and braking performance due to stones getting stuck. Attached Figure Description

When the tread groove 3 on the tire 1 comes into contact with the wheel surface, the groove opening narrows due to compression, so stones are less likely to get stuck in the groove. Furthermore, multiple protrusions are provided on the two side walls of the tread groove 3 in a linear array along its length direction. The surface of the protrusions is an arc surface, which can effectively block stones, so that the high-speed rotating tire 1 will not reduce its grip and braking performance due to stones getting stuck.
[0054] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
